Reverse call overseas - urgent!

I am trying to urgently arrange a reverse phone call to Australia, however I can't seem to locate an operator to do so from the UK (100 or 155 numbers don't seem to work from my mobile).

Also, my mobile plan is a PAYG (minutes, texts and data) so I don't have enough credit to contact the reverse calls number in Australia.

Does anyone know any free reverse charge numbers that can direct an Australian call from the UK?

Thanks!

    I was going to mention 0800REVERSE but looking at their website it seems you cannot use it for international calls.

    However, after searching around on Google I found this:

    http://www.1800reverse.com.au/8000-reverse

    According to the website when calling from the UK you need to dial: 0080007383773

    I'm not sure if you can dial 00800 numbers free of charge from your mobile like you can with 0800 numbers - best to check with your mobile service provider before trying.

    Can't you just pop round to somebody who has a landline and do it from there?
